The NIOSH booklet Histoplasmosis: Protecting Workers at Risk
(Publication #2005-109) contains information on clean-up procedures and
respiratory protection. It can be found on the NIOSH web site at
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/publistd.html or by calling 1-800-35-NIOSH.
As far as how to get rid of the birds, I have heard all kinds of
methods, all of which seem to have limited effectiveness.

Subject: bird doo
We have nesting swifts and swallows nesting in eaves and under veranda
type roofs in our picturesque California Mission style buildings.
Most
of us enjoy the birds and bird activities, however, they make bird
doo,
sometimes in substantial quantities.
Can anyone share information on:
1) Bird doo clean-up protocol for in-house staff
2) Control measures (humane, i.e. not fire hose removal) to prevent
nesting of swifts and swallows (mud nests built with bird spit
adhering
to wall surfaces in corners in eaves etc.).
I know about Histoplasmosis and Psittacosis - I don't need info on
bird
doo diseases - I am looking for practical specific information on
control measures and clean up.
thanks
